❝You're you, Toby.❞ Cliff muttered softly, his hand reached down to intertwine his fingers with Toby's. ❝It is nice to be back here with you, as well. I just wish I hadn't left you when you needed me the most.❞ He admitted with a bit of sadness in his voice. He wishes that he could find a time machine so that he can go back in time and make better decisions. Especially for Toby and be there for him.
❝Unfortunately, I know all about moving on too well.❞ Cliff muttered softly. ❝It's been too long, Toby but I will admit something to you...❞ He paused to lift his head up to stare down and look into Toby's eyes. ❝I missed you and thought about you daily.❞ He finally spoke to him out loud, sighing to himself. He had wondered to himself if they could at least reestablish where they were way back when. He wanted everything to go back to normal, even if it was just for a little bit.
Cliff's fingers tightened up a bit as he smiled a bit. His eyes wandered away from Toby for a moment before they went back over to him. ❝Would you...❞ He hesitated his next question as his top teeth met with his bottom lip with worry and nerves. ❝Would you perhaps want to go to your room and cuddle like old times?❞ Cliff was mentally facepalming himself after asking that then shook his head.
❝You know what, never mind, forget I asked.❞ He immediately said with retreat and the wave of his free hand but still had his hand lock with Toby's. Cliff just wanted to at least have things before as they were before just once tonight. Even if it was just for tonight, at least he'd feel somewhat better.
